Riverside County Holidays

It’s value for money I would say. Don’t expect that it’s a that level class Hotel. But good for a cost effective Hotel, for a quick stay. For family I would say it’s not a good option but feasible in price.

The Hollywood Hotel was very convenient for our first trip to LA without a car. It was clean, had a beautiful pool area and courtyard, and was close to the Vermont/Santa Monica Metro station. It was only 15 minutes away from West Hollywood by subway, and it was easy to get to the Hollywood Bowl and Dodgers stadium using transit or Uber. The neighborhood north of the hotel is pretty safe, as it is mainly a medical district with a couple of major hospitals. We walked it at night with no issues. However, the neighborhood deteriorates quickly if you walk south on Vermont beyond Santa Monica Boulevard. There is a complex with a Rite Aid, restaurants, AM/PM, and a seafood market/grocery right at the corner of Vermont and Santa Monica that’s safe to walk to in the daytime. Only issue was getting good coffee in the morning. The bistro has an espresso machine, but the staff are overwhelmed by the breakfast crowd, so you can wait a long time. They should have self-serve drip coffee available for guests. Fortunately, there’s a good coffee shop just steps away south on Vermont called De La Tierra. Highly recommended. For a hotel in this price range, it was very good value. We’d do it again!

Jasmine at the front desk was absolutely amazing!

Clean rooms but not very nice on the outside.
